In my art work I explore themes of identity/culture, immigration and ancestry. The patterns that I developed became a visual language for me that I use to express my stories and the stories of my ancestors. The painting narrates my identity both as an immigrant and being a mixed Amazigh (indigenous North African) coming from Algeria. Representing the balance and new found ground amidst both cultures. These patterns are painted with acrylic on sewed pieces of canvas, repurposed fabrics and beads.
